Mulberry Orchard.
“We called at the orchard of Felix
“Gillet, the other evening, to obtain
‘afew plants.of @ rare variety not
“easily obtained on this coast, and
were well.repaid for our walk. The
‘grounds belonging to Mr. Gillet, we
should judge, are about fifteen acres
in extent. The place is on thé “Bust
‘side of town, on a. high’ elevation
_. from which a delightful. view of the
" . Sgiirroundidig'lands is obtained. The
~‘groundsate tastily. arranged and are
“Tater: éd with gravel walks, affota‘ingan opportunity to pass from done
a The place is called
‘a mulberry orchard, but ‘we should
sooner call it a garden. There are
‘fruit trees Of nearly ¢very variety,
‘vines of various kinds and plants in
iprofusion, ‘Thete ate, on the place,
‘only 2, 500 iitilberry trees; butthey-. luundred feet high, ite base being at
ders from anywhere.
‘eultivated to ‘the highest “degree.
The ledves-are nearly twice the size
‘of.’ those grown elsewhere, so they
‘are capable of supporting a large
‘niimber of worms. There are a large
‘nuthber of trees of the Morus Japon.
+a, which Mr, Gillet first introduced
into this State four years ago. He
has, the past season, had orders for
this variety from Utab, Mexico, and
‘other points: He hasa nursery jin [velocity quite sufficient to carry with
which young trees are started, and
‘ean be furnished by him to fill orMr. Gillet is
a pioneer in the silk-worm business,
and is, we presume, better authority
~~“on that subject than anyone in the
State. His cocoonery is a model of
neatness ahd convenience. His lad‘ders for worms to ascend to reach}
some ingenious shelves. he has con‘‘gtracted, are a great improvement
‘on the common method of allowing
the coevons to be spun in the leaves
‘of bushes. The shelves are BO arranged that when the cocoons are to
be removed all the fingers can be extended and drawn down between
: ‘slats and remove all the cocoons at
‘one passage. Whereas by the old
method one at a time has to be removed from the small limbs used
for the purpose. Mr. Gillet has al‘go in uso what is called shifting pa
per. When the litter from the
shelves on which are the worms
need cleauing up, as it does every
oomiday,-these papers, which are made
‘of tough material and thickly perfora‘ed with holes, are placed on top
‘of the worms, and leaves: scattered
‘over them. The worms come up
“through the holes in the paper und
‘commence eating the leaves, When
they are all up, the shifting paper
is raised with the wornis on it, and
placed in another place until the lit_ ter is removed, when the paper is
again returned. The paper is also
"of service when a part of the worms
have to be destroyed. . When enough
-have come up through the holes,
the paper is removed and the balance cf the worms are thrown away.
‘There is, in the cocoonery, every
‘convenience for hatching and taking
care of the worms. Arrangements
are made for keeping the rooms at
‘any temperature by means of a heat‘erin the basement. Mr. Gillet has
~“about two ounces of eggs which he
will allow to hatch this year.
They ‘will produce about 60,000
‘worms. They are allofthe Japanese
_ Varieties and were imported by. him. +gelf, ‘They are what is called white
‘and green anuuals. Wo notieed a
package of eggs put away in a box
of charcoal, which upon inguiry we
learned are going to fill an oder
from Mexico. The place is really
worth visiting, Mr. Gillét‘is doing
muuch _to prove the adaptability o of .
this State to silk culture, unf@ he has.
